What this site and the app keep

Only to tell you when EchoLog can be bought.

We do not give or sell it to anyone.

The legal basis is your consent (article 6.1.a GDPR). You can withdraw it at any time.

In a Cloudflare database. Cloudflare hosts this site on our behalf.

Cloudflare is a US company. Transfers out of the EU are covered by the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and standard contractual clauses.

Until you ask to be removed and, at most, twelve months after launch.

To stop bots, the server counts submissions from each connection for ten minutes.

That count lives in memory and disappears by itself.

Your IP address does not go into the list.

Cloudflare Web Analytics counts visits to each page.

It sets no cookies and stores nothing in your browser.

Cloudflare does this on our behalf, with the same safeguards for transfers out of the EU.

Payment is handled by Stripe (Stripe Payments Europe, through Link), which acts as the merchant of record and processes your payment details under its own policy.

We receive your email, your country and the purchase details, to issue the license and handle refunds.

We never see your card.

When you transcribe with EchoLog Cloud, using the credits included with your license, the audio passes through EchoLog’s server to a transcription provider that turns it into text. The text comes back to the app.

We do not store that audio or the transcript on our server. We keep a usage ledger linked to your license: the seconds of audio counted and the credits used, so we can work out your balance.

If you use your own key for a transcription service instead, the audio goes straight from your computer to that service and does not pass through our server.

This applies only when you use EchoLog Cloud, meaning the credits included with your license.

Transcription audio and requests to EchoLog Cloud AI (summaries, answers from your documents and Whisperer) pass through EchoLog’s server to the provider that does the work.

EchoLog Cloud stores nothing that passes through it: no audio, no text, no requests and no answers. It only records the seconds and the credits you use.

The local engine (answers and summaries only) sends nothing. Transcription always needs EchoLog Cloud or your own key for a transcription service. With your own keys, none of this passes through EchoLog’s server.

Recipients: transcription and AI providers that process the data on our behalf, some of them in the United States, with safeguards for transfers out of the EU such as standard contractual clauses.

Recordings and the index of your documents stay on your computer.

Answers and summaries are written by the model you pick. With the built-in local engine, nothing leaves your computer. With EchoLog Cloud AI, see the section above. With your own key, the text is sent to the provider whose key you entered, under that provider’s terms.

Whisperer uses EchoLog Cloud AI by default. If you add your own TypeSafe or LLM key, snippets of the transcript go to that provider instead. You can pause it.

You can ask to see, correct, take or delete your data, and object to its use or restrict it.

Write to [email protected] from the email address you gave us. Controller: Manuel Torres (manutorres.dev).

If we do not handle your request well, you can complain to the Spanish Data Protection Agency (AEPD).

What the app does with your recordings is in what leaves your computer.
